INTERIOR | Work Area, Notebook Fetish

Desk: Made by my boyfriend with plumbing pipes and leftover perspex from my side table DIY. He is a genius when it comes to interior design projects; I could hardy call this a DIY, it's more like a finished product.
Lamp: Also made by my boyfriend from old merchandising material from the shop where he works.
Chair: Hema
Current notebooks: Large black ringbound notebook: Tiger DK, thin sketch book: Moleskine, thick sketch book: Moleskine, double binder white notebooks: Maison Martin Margiela
Clear cuff: DIY

I am obsessed with working areas; whether that be someone's kitchen table, Jowy's little art room where she works on her illustrations or Linda's atelier. So I thought it would be fun to also share some snapshots of the area where I blog from; a corner of our living room. I don't separate 'work' from the rest of my life; one should spend as much time doing what they love, I don't mind staying up all night to work on interesting projects. The pile of notebooks is the result of my notebook fetish, and these are my current favorites. I always make sure I have at least one of them with me at all times as ideas and inspiration come when you least expect them.

Whoa, what a gorgeous workspace. And I love that it completely reflects your aesthetic. Not to mention you are a lucky dog to have such a super talented boyfriend. That desk and lamp are amazing! He should market that stuff, seriously.

I am obsessed with workspaces too! I love seeing pictures of other people's workspaces, so I'm so pleased you shared yours! I love how minimalist but chic it is, the clear table & chair are so cool. xx

I am just as obsessed with work areas! I feel like once my desk is just the way I like it, full of the things I love around me, that ill be able to do the work I have to do! Haha, this is a simple but beautiful interior! x

Omg, that is amazing. I love looking at other people's workspaces and yours is just, like i said, amazing! I just love that your boyfriend made the table for you to fit your aesthetics. I mean, what is it that he does?

you and your boyfriend are so talented, beautiful and stylish -you must be real soulmates! Can't think of how your daughter turn out :)I always wanted to say that I truly admire you two! you were having a child at a very young age, you had to stay responsible when other people enjoyed their live like there was no tomorrow and you are still a happy family. that is for me the most inspiring about you!

Everything you do is so beautiful! Obsessed with all the clear furniture you have made. I'm about to make my boyfriend try his hand at building a table from your instructions! I have a notebook fetish also, and have now found the extreme need for one of the mason martin margiela one's. Thank you for your inspiration, I can't tell you how much time I've spent sifting through your blog!
